Petition: Introduce 'Grow Your Own' Laws for Legal Medical Cannabis Patients (CBPM)

Post by sybarite »

Ey up GR420, I recently got approved as a medical cannabis patient, so this is worth a shot:

https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/635748

"Patients prescribed 'CBPM' by a medical specialist should be allowed to maintain 3-6 flowering plants (with extra considerations for starting new seedlings.) 'GYO' registration database could be maintained via local council, notifying police of local medical grows - similar to Canadian setup.

There's ~25,000 legal medical cannabis patients across the UK, prescribed primarily bud/flower or refined oil extracts. Most patients face severe financial difficulty affording their prescription.

Many patients are unable to work, and are forced to turn to cheaper illicit sources due to affordability. "Grow Your Own" is available to cannabis patients in many other countries for this very reason, and must also be considered in the UK."

We had a leaflet through the door from Saphire Clinics the other day. It got all the old bed wetters googlying what it was as there was no mention of dope on there.

With a medcal prescription of cannabis you can legally drive as long as you're unimpaired:
